Drainage — Family-owned, 4.9★ rated, 15-year warranty
Peachtree Corners has some seriously beautiful homes—especially in The Forum area and around Technology Park—and a lot of those properties come with yards that could use a little help in the drainage department. We've installed plenty of putting greens across the 30092, 30096, and 30097 zip codes, and honestly, the Gwinnett clay around here is the reason most homeowners call us in the first place. It's dense, it holds water like nobody's business, and if you've got a spot where you want to practice your short game without dealing with soggy ground every time it rains, artificial turf with proper drainage is the move. Our crews know exactly what it takes to build a putting green in this area—we're talking base layers, perforated backing, and gravel systems that actually work with Gwinnett's soil instead of fighting against it. Whether your lot is near Jones Bridge Park or tucked into a quieter neighborhood pocket, we've got the experience to make sure your green stays playable year-round, no puddles, no excuses.
Gwinnett County clay is no joke. It compacts hard, sheds water slowly, and if you're putting in a practice green without the right foundation, you'll end up with a swamp every time we get one of our afternoon thunderstorms. That's why drainage isn't optional here—it's essential. Most Peachtree Corners properties, especially in The Forum's manicured landscape community, have HOA guidelines around yard improvements, so we always check those requirements upfront. Your lot size matters too; we see everything from quarter-acre suburban plots to slightly larger setups near the tech corridor. Sun exposure varies depending on tree cover—some yards are shaded by mature oaks, others get full afternoon sun. We account for both when we design the base. The good news is that once we get the drainage system right—and we do this on every job—your putting green performs better than natural grass ever could. No settling, no bare patches, and the Gwinnett clay actually works in our favor because we build *on top* of it, not in it.
Gwinnett's clay soil naturally resists drainage. With artificial turf, we install a perforated backing and gravel base that channels water down and away, bypassing the clay entirely. Natural grass roots fight the same compacted soil you do—artificial turf systems win every time in this region.
Most Peachtree Corners HOAs permit artificial turf, especially for small practice areas, but rules vary. We review your deed restrictions and HOA guidelines before we start any project. It's always worth a quick call to your HOA to confirm, and we're happy to help with that conversation.
We typically install 4–6 inches of compacted gravel over the Gwinnett clay, depending on slope and water table. This creates the gap that lets water flow through and away. Every property is different, but that's our standard starting point for Peachtree Corners yards.
Most residential projects take 3–5 days from site prep through final turf installation. If your yard has significant grading needs or clay removal, it might stretch longer. We'll give you a timeline after the site visit, and we're usually booked about 30 days out.
